Site: Jacksonville, Fla.

Attendance: 72,749

Storyline: After three straight losses to end the regular-season, the Seminoles roar ahead 27-3 behind MVP willie Reid, who returned a punt for a touchdown and accounted for 210 all-purpose yards, before holding off the Hokies in the fourth quarter.

2006 – Wake Forest 9, Georgia Tech 6

Site: Jacksonville, Fla.

Attendance: 62,850

Storyline: Sparked by a late-season 30-0 shutout win at Florida State, the Demon Deacons defy last-place preseason projections to win the Atlantic Division and then the school’s first league title since 1970. Kicker Sam Swank accounted all of Wake Forest’s points on field goals and earned him MVP honors.

2007 – Virginia Tech 30, Boston College 16

Site: Jacksonville, Fla.

Attendance: 53,212

Storyline: Game MVP Sean Glennon and Hokies avenged their only league loss with two fourth-quarter touchdowns. Glennon’s 24-yard TD pass to Eddie Royal and Xavier Adibi’s 40-yard return of a Matt Ryan pass interception were the decisive 14 points to snap a 16-all tie.

2008 – Virginia Tech 30, Boston College 12

Site: Tampa, Fla.

Attendance: 53,927

Storyline: The Hokies again avenge a regular-season loss to Boston College, this time in more emphatic fashion. Behind MVP Tyrod Taylor’s two touchdown runs, Virginia Tech won a sloppy game that included seven turnovers, including one returned for a TD by the Hokies’ Orion Martin.

Site: Tampa, Fla.

Attendance: 57,227

Site: Charlotte

Attendance: 72,739
